About Republic of the Congo

The Republic of the Congo is introduced through seven dated records from UNESCO, Ramsar, and the World Bank. The lessons teach source-aware English with heritage, wetlands, music, and data vocabulary. They keep a source, claim, and date together, and they do not turn a narrow record into a claim about every person.
